Vehicle may not restart message: what to do?!

[OrbiterTI4]

$2100 to replace the Instrument Cluster, or $1500 to replace both screens and upgrade to MCU2... The Instrument Cluster is on MCU1 is it's own "computer" per say. When Upgrading to MCU2, the IC in incorporated into the MCU (one "computer" vs. 2 with MCU1).

And you avoid the eventual leaking glue from both displays.

Thanks!
The recall upgrade to MCU2 happened 4 months ago, but the Instrument cluster had been iffy for months prior to that….occasionally remaining black when I opened the door in the morning. I would have to reboot. It never went black while driving then, but started that when I first got the alerts about the 12v battery.
I thought the IC problem was connected to the 12v battery problem.

Apparently not.

So the $1500 upgrade seems to be the way to go.
Thanks

the more people opt for the $1500 "upgrade", the less likely tsla will ever offer the MCU2 replacement as the solution for the faulty MCU1. Why do a recall properly when your customers are willing to pay for it.

I guess that's better...? but alarming how random and off their diagnoses can be.

Hey dwavo, I just started getting an alert:

GTW_w026
Service is Required
Schedule service

Did you happen to get that at all before you got the "vehicle may not start" message?

Just curious because I just inquired about it thru the SC app, and they're claiming it's the MDL S, DM, THERM, SYS, ELECT BATT HEATER (1038901-00-K) or the wiring at my touch screen. What? those things don't seem even remotely related.
